Super User Oregon Native Posted October 10, 2018 Super User Posted October 10, 2018 OMG.....I hear the cold weather is coming....hope so. Caterpillars are all brown so the locals say could be a mild winter. (have never heard this!?) Last night the &^%! mosquito's were so hungry that I had to spray myself twice with Repel and then pray I didn't miss a tiny spot.....was crazy. Anyway...this year has been tough. Also a year of many lost fish for some reason but ....hey.....I get to fish and that's a plus even though it can be frustrating. Last night .... as per the usual I put a keeper in the boat in the first half hour....(life is good....was 4.85). I'm thinking...the monkey is gone....gone. Fish was barely hooked on the trailer of a buzzbait.....whew. Moving forward....I caught a few on a jerk and a senko but all small. What I did manage to witness was loosing or missing the next five keepers (of nice size) on the buzzbait. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.......OMG. With only three hours to run around I didn't get the mind working to try different topwaters......water had a bunch of floaters too in the form of scum and grass...not a lot but enough to mess with some double hook baits.....soooo.....me ol brain is thinking what to do for the end of year tourney this weekend. Maybe try a larger trailer...was using a 2/0. I did manage to get big fish and second place so that was awesome...but I coulda ....shoulda.....well was hoping.......... Tight Lines 4 Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted October 11, 2018 Global Moderator Posted October 11, 2018 Maybe try a buzz toad, similar action that isn't effected by the grass and you can stop it on those fish that just swipe at it to give them a chance to come back. Quote
